... God gazes down from star.eyed
skies, searching for the prodigal who
ran. i try to shr.ink myself into the
darkness, into the shadowy places,
so He can't see [i am naked - dirty -
afraid]. Against the vastness of His
love, a meteor falls: or is it? Maybe
it's a tear, cried from Him to me. He
sighs and, before settling in for the
long wait, turns on the light: just in
case i change my mind about running
away. i'll need it to find my way home.
Karla, "the light and the way" -- in these times when we all feel on some days like the prodigal son-- your words encourage and reaffirm our faith --- peace and much love to dear friend -- JMW
Not unlike the well-known Scientific Method, one must first recognize that there is a problem - analyze and consider the alternatives involved - then reach the conclusion, or ANSWER.
The sheer acknowledgement of truly understanding the waywardness, is a GIANT STEP in following the LIGHTED PATH HOME!
Karla--been reading in silence but this piece just made me have to speak up. I can feel these words in my soul.
Just remember--the light is always on.
Good thing, too, because I am afraid of the dark.
Great emotion.

Karla,
Beautifully conceived and expressed, the father's regret at losing the prodigal child, the child's guilt and self-loathing and the hopes of reunion and redemption. A fine work.

... oh look... and He's left the doors wide open, too! :)) xx
This is tender and touching and gets right inside the heart of the woe-begone stray and the Father's anguish. I, for one, know these places well... of both words and picture! Home from home, I'd say. Bless you, xx
In a post-coup America, an Illinois farm boy is drawn into the resistance by his brother's death. Captured, he is given a choice: betray his friends, or the girl he loves will be lobotomized.
